Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Sacramento County real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Home values in Sacramento County have dipped modestly over the past year, down about 3.1 percent even as the broader California market fell 3.33 percent. Inventory is also lower than a year ago, dropping 9.66 percent, and pending sales are off by about 20.82 percent. New listings are down 23.07 percent, signaling fewer homes coming to market than last year.
In February 2026, the typical home value reached about $530,000, with a median list price near $549,000 and 2,038 homes for sale. Homes spent a median of 31 days on the market, which is 63.16 percent higher than a year ago but sharply lower month over month, and sellers received about 99.5 percent of their asking price on average.
Conditions still lean toward sellers, with a seller's market gauge and a relatively tight 2.3 months of supply. Roughly 37.46 percent of recent sales closed above list price, even as about 24.39 percent of active listings saw a price drop. Looking ahead to March 2026, projections suggest the typical home value could edge up to around $535,000, with the median list price near $559,291 and inventory rising slightly to about 2,081 homes. With these shifting trends affecting both pricing power and time on market for buyers and sellers, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands Sacramento County’s numbers and nuances.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Sacramento County offers residents a vibrant mix of diverse neighborhoods, abundant outdoor recreation, strong schools and services, and a thriving economy rooted in cultural and agricultural heritage.
Sacramento County offers a distinct blend of capital city energy and established neighborhoods that sets it apart from nearby Bay Area and Tahoe communities. From Midtown Sacramento’s walkable streets and local dining scene to the tree lined pockets of Fair Oaks, Carmichael, and Elk Grove, residents find a strong sense of place along with room to grow.
Outdoor time is easy to prioritize here. The American River Parkway, anchored by Discovery Park, winds past cycling routes, river access, and picnic spots, while Folsom Lake State Recreation Area draws boaters and trail users. Families appreciate destinations such as the Sacramento Zoo and hands on exhibits at the California State Railroad Museum. Local flavor shows up at places like Old Sacramento Waterfront, neighborhood farmers markets, and community events from Citrus Heights to Rancho Cordova.
The county’s neighborhoods range from historic homes in Sacramento to newer developments in Elk Grove and Folsom. Commuters benefit from options that include SacRT light rail and regional access to Sacramento County offices, healthcare, and higher education.

She was always easy to reach, highly professional, and consistently went above and beyond to help us throughout the home buying process. During escrow, she was there every step of the way; answering our questions promptly, explaining the process clearly, and easing any concerns we had along the way.

We truly appreciate everything she has done for us and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.”

For a first time homebuyer like me, I was anxious and had a lot of questions about everything... and Herbert was always there patiently explaining and teaching us how the process works. He made homebuying enjoyable! It is nice to have someone to trust in making decisions like buying a house, and with Herbert you will feel that he got your back and he will work to get you the best deal. He was transparent with the transactions and negotiations and worked with our best interest and needs/wants in mind. Thank you very much, Herbert!”

“As first time home buyers, we are incredibly thankful to have Jason as our realtor. He was patient, thorough, and communicative throughout the entire home buying process. From day one, he helped us establish realistic goals and expectations. There were never any feelings of pressure and each showing we went to was never rushed. He offered honest feedback and his insight was invaluable, especially since we knew nothing about home buying in the slightest. We spent several weeks together looking at homes before finally coming across one we absolutely loved. He guided us through putting in an offer and was available at any time of day for all our questions and concerns. He handled everything for us after the offer was approved, including wonderful recommendations for home/roof inspections. We can’t recommend him enough. If you value honesty, dedication, patience, and authenticity, he is your realtor!”

“I have to say from our first meeting I found Linda to be very pleasant, proffessioal and informative. This was reasuring to me as this was the first experience my wife and I have had with the process of buying a home. I was QUITE NERVOUS about buying a home for the first time, (and it did not help that I don't trust most people) but I have to say that Linda put me at ease with her explanation of the process, and what to look for when it comes to perchasing a home. We let her know what we were looking for, what we could afford and what area we wanted to live in. Linda MORE than met all of our expectation. I would HIGHLY recommend Linda to anyone looking for a pleasant and positive experience when it comes to buying a home!”

Chris is very experienced and good at negotiations. He was able to get 2 major repairs done at the property at the Seller's expence!”
